The Steve Nash-led Team Canada won their first match against home team Puerto Rico. They take on the favored Argentinians (Manu Ginobili) who were upset by Mexico (Eduardo Najera).

The U.S. is sailing along smoothly, 2-0. I know that Vince Carter replaced Kobe Bryant on the team, but why is he also wearing Kobe's number (8, instead of his customary 15)?

Drat! Canada just fell 94-90 to Argentina. frown

These games (or at least the ones involving the US team) are on pay-per-view. Is anyone actually paying for this? Just curious.

The FIBA website.

Canada plays the U.S. tonight.

Canada makes it to the semis. We only have to win one of the final two games (Argentina & Puerto Rico) to qualify for next year's Olymics. Go Canada!

----------------

Drat! Canada loses both games and fails to qualify for next years Olympic basketball. frown
